In maths topic this week, we have been exploring different number systems from the past. \u00a0We looked at Greek, Babylonian, Arabic, Egyptian and Mayan numbers. \u00a0We then used these number systems to design our own everyday items including watches, clocks, calculators and remote controls. \u00a0The children had great fun using the symbols and shapes to represent numbers.<\/p>\n
